Description
We have taken a year off our respective professions to try something different, immerse ourselves in another culture and meet new people.
We consider ourselves highly motivated, adventurous and easy going. We live a very healthy and active lifestyle, enjoy the great outdoors and love exploring new places.
Cassie is a physical and outdoor education secondary school teacher at the local High School in Torquay. Cassie also shares her knowledge and passion for sport through coaching a high level Australian Rules Football team and coaching regular CrossFit Classes.
Em is a Physiotherapist at a Hospital in Geelong for the past 18 months. Prior to this she was living in London for 3 years having a number of Physio roles with the NHS.
Our employers and colleagues would describe us as hard working, vivacious team players who enjoy a challenge and giving back to the community.
We have loved living in Torquay on The Great Ocean Road, for the great beaches, surf, running, hiking and camping. However we are keen to live somewhere completely different and pursue our love of snow sports and mountain biking.Interests

Cassie and I had such an action packed 6 weeks with Danielle, Jacqui, Rayn and Pace. and we loved every minute of it.
